Breeders’ Cup Ltd. and the Oak Tree Racing Association announced yesterday that they will sponsor a handicapping tournament with a $10,000 buy-in and $150,000 first-place prize in conjunction with the Breeders' Cup year-end event on Nov. 6-7 at Santa Anita,

Second place in the Breeders' Cup tournament will receive $50,000; third, $25,000; fourth, $15,000; fifth, $10,000; and sixth through 10th, $5,000.

The contest will be limited to the first 100 players who enter, the organization said.

Each NHC qualifier also will earn $1,000 towards his or her travel expenses for Las Vegas.
